Book excerpt: Excerpt from General Specifications for Steel Railroad Bridges and Structures: With a Section Making Them Applicable to Highway Bridges and Buildings; Prepared Under the Direction of Virgil G. Bogue, Civil Engineer The new uniform live load, given in Paragraph 37, which may be substituted for the Cooper concentrated loadings, is presented for the use of engineers who prefer to use uniform loads, rather than wheel loads, in their computations. It will give somewhat greater moments for spans up to about one hundred and fifty feet in length, and slightly smaller moments for spans over four hun dred feet in length, which is considered an advantage.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Specifications for Practical Architecture: A Guide to the Architect, Engineer, Surveyor, and Builder, With an Essay on the Structure and Science of Modern Buildings A volume of Specifications of a practical character being greatly required, and the old standard work of Alfred Bartholomew being out of print, I have taken his work as my basis, and have struck out and altered the preliminary matter, so as to make it more adapted to modern science and requirements. The Specifications I have so altered as to bring in the now universal use of concrete, the more general use of drainage, the use of iron, glass, asphalte, and other material. Where it has seemed to me to be necessary, I have inserted Specifications of works that have been erected in my own practice, and I have added a form for General Conditions and an Agreement.

Download or read book Specifications for Building Works and How to Write Them written by Frederic Richard Farrow and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Specifications for Building Works and How to Write Them: A Manual for Architectural Students This Manual is written with a view to meet the requirements of the architectural student, to show him how he should write a specification, so that when he has learnt the method and general principles, he may apply them to the particular exigencies of any building he may design. The examples given are intended to act as illustrations, not as precedents to be exactly copied in every instance. There is' a bad practice existing in many architects' offices of copying old specifications, with some modifications, for new work. Such a practice leads too often to the omission of important items, to the inclusion of irrelevant matter, and to vague and indefinite description. A mere collection of precedents is therefore too apt to prove a pitfall for the student, who should rather take it as an axiom that each well; written specification will fitly apply only to the one design for which it is intended and to no other. Once secure in his own mental equipment, the architect has no further need of guides and precedents, but will produce better and more satisfactory work by the independent exercise of his trained faculties and intelligence.

Book excerpt: Construction Details From Architectural Graphic Standards Eighth Edition Edited by James Ambrose A concise reference tool for the professional involved in the production of details for building construction, this abridgement of the classic Architectural Graphic Standards provides indispensable guidance on standardizing detail work, without having to create the needed details from scratch. An ideal "how to" manual for the working draftsperson, this convenient, portable edition covers general planning and design data, sitework, concrete, masonry, metals, wood, doors and windows, finishes, specialties, equipment, furnishings, special construction, energy design, historic preservation, and more. Construction Details also includes extensive references to additional information as well as AGS’s hallmark illustrations. 1991 (0 471-54899-5) 408 pp. Fundamentals of Building Construction Materials And Methods Second Edition Edward Allen "A thoughtful overview of the entire construction industry, from homes to skyscrapers…there’s plenty here for the aspiring tradesperson or anyone else who’s fascinated by the art of building." —Fine Homebuilding Beginning with the materials of the ancients—wood, stone, and brick—this important work is a guide to the structural systems that have made these and more contemporary building materials the irreplaceable basics of modern architecture. Detailing the structural systems most widely used today—heavy timber framing, wood platform framing, masonry loadbearing wall, structural steel framing, and concrete framing systems—the book describes each system’s historical development, how the major material is obtained and processed, tools and working methods, as well as each system’s relative merits. Designed as a primer to building basics, the book features a list of key terms and concepts, review questions and exercises, as well as hundreds of drawings and photographs, illustrating the materials and methods described. 1990 (0 471-50911-6) 803 pp. Mechanical and Electrical Equipment for Buildings Eighth Edition Benjamin Stein and John S. Reynolds "The book is packed with useful information and has been the architect’s standard for fifty years." —Electrical Engineering and Electronics on the seventh edition More up to date than ever, this reference classic provides valuable insights on the new imperatives for building design today. The Eighth Edition details the impact of computers, data processing, and telecommunications on building system design; the effects of new, stringent energy codes on building systems; and computer calculation techniques as applied to daylighting and electric lighting design. As did earlier editions, the book provides the basic theory and design guidelines for both systems and equipment, in everything from heating and cooling, water and waste, fire and fire protection systems, lighting and electrical wiring, plumbing, elevators and escalators, acoustics, and more. Thoroughly illustrated, the book is a basic primer on making comfort and resource efficiency integral to the design standard. 1991 (0 471-52502-2) 1,664 pp.

This book was released on 2018-03-18 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Development of a Probability Based Load Criterion for American National Standard A58: Building Code Requirements for Minimum Design Loads in Buildings and Other Structures The proposed design process thus defines the appropriate limit states, and hence it is often named Limit States Design. Limit states design, in itself, is nothing fundamentally new but is a procedure which, in effect, requires the designer to consider explicitly several different modes of possible structural behavior during design. The particular method above also identifies resistance factors and load factors, and so it is called Load and Resistance Factor Design; it is one (of several) limit states design criteria formats. Broadly speaking, there are two types of limit states: (1) ultimate limit states under which the structure or component is judged to have failed in its capacity to carry load; and (2) serviceability limit states under which the function of the building is impaired. The recommendations in this report are confined to the ultimate limit states as these are of particular concern in standards and specifications which are intended to protect the public from physical harm. The recommended load and resistance factor design format which incorporates limit states, resistance factors, load factors and load combinations is a formalization of trends evident in many structural specifications in the United States. It provides a means whereby it is possible to achieve more uniform performance and reliability in structural design than is possible with just one factor of safety. This has long been recognized in reinforced concrete design. Current research in metal structures has also produced tentative rules which apply to steel, cold-formed steel, and aluminum structures. The' thesis of this report is that it is also desirable to provide common load combinations-and load factors which can be used in connection with all material specifications. This point will be elaborated upon subsequently. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
